Thanks Sirtel, but when you have over 50,000 books, it takes a LONG TIME to search through all those books. So, I didn't want to, but I had to break it down into multiple libraries to get the performance I need.

Quoth, MS DOS was released in 1982. I used it. I also used ALL the other DOS versions AND wrote the deltree command used by Microsoft. Just because you grew up using a mouse and a keyboard doesn't mean the other software didn't exist. Lastly, correcting someone's use of a word inaccurately just shows you're a poser because those of us who actually KNOW all this stuff wouldn't bother to correct anything as trivial as a DOS BOX. Since you don't understand them you probably shouldn't use my tools.
